The principal opposition YSR Congress and Congress today released 'charge sheets' on completion of four years of the Chandrababu Naidu government, alleging that not one promise the TDP made ahead of the 2014 polls was fulfilled.
While the state's debt, prior to bifurcation in 2014, stood at Rs 1 lakh crore, the state government borrowed over Rs 1.49 lakh crore in just four years, taking the total debt to Rs 2.50 lakh crore, the opposition parties said.
The government, however, defended the borrowing, claiming it was needed to fulfil the promises made to people.
Leader of Opposition in the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Council Ummareddy Venkateswarlu released the 31-page 'charge sheet' on behalf of YSRC, while former Union minister M M Pallam Raju released the Congress 'charge sheet.'
The state government has been implementing 103 schemes for "peoples happiness."
